"Least Costly" is why I'm asking this. Backing up to cloud eats my monthly allotment of bandwidth. Last month I got a warning about that. Take a look at Tarsnaphttp://www.tarsnap.com/. It's both bandwidth efficient and cost effective.
That doesn't help. The problem I had wasn't with the 'storage' end. I use Dreamhost and my monthly allocation is as close to 'unlimited' as makes little difference. Its the 'last mile' bandwidth that is the limit, my cable service. Yes, I could pay more, upgrade that service; Yes, I could pay more for 'over-runs'; Yes, even though there is a monopoly and only the one cable provider in my area, the law permits other organization to make use tier facilities, and there are 'cut-price' services, but what else do the 'cut'? -- Dictators ride to and fro upon tigers which they dare not dismount.
